1 answer:
Alisiya [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 7 m and x = −7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Its a modulus problem

concept

|x|  = x when x>=0

|x| = -x when x < 0

____________________________________

Now given

|x| − 2 = 5

adding 2 both sides

|x| − 2  + 2 = 5 + 2

|x|  = 7

now

x = 7  when x >= 0

x = -7 when x<0

Thus, correct answer is x = 7 m and x = −7 m

State the value of the discriminate. Then determine the number of real roots of the equation.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

no real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0 : a ≠ 0

Then the nature of the roots can be determined from the discriminant

b² - 4ac

• If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real and distinct roots

• If b² - 4ac = 0 then 2 real and equal roots

• If b² - 4ac < 0 then no real roots

Given

n(7n + 8) = - 10 ← distribute left side

7n² + 8n = - 10 ( add 10 to both sides )

7n² + 8n + 10 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 7, b = 8 and c = 10, thus

b² - 4ac = 8² - (4 × 7 × 10) = 64 - 280 = - 216

Since b² - 4ac < 0 the equation has no real roots

Find the midpoint of the line on the coordinate plane with the given endpoints below.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Then the midpoint is (2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We treat the x- and y-coordinates separately, first finding the average (mean) of the x-coordinates and then the average of the y-coordinates:

xm = (-1 + 5)/2 = 2

ym = (1 - 5)/2 = -2

Then the midpoint is (2, -2)
